Can the tummy tuck surgery throw off the menstrual cycle?

Thank you for your question and I am sorry to hear of your menstrual irregularities.  The stress of surgery can cause your hormones to be thrown off cycle, resulting in irregular, increased, or decreased periods.  I would allow your body time to heal and you should see your cycle return to its previous timing.  Hope that this helps.

Thank you very much for sharing your concerns with us.At this point (2 weeks post-po) the swelling is minimal.To reduce it, I recommend you perform daily lymphatic drainage massage therapy over the abdomen and wear a postoperative girdle from thigh to the breasts.If the fter six months post-op, I recommend you send us your photos again, to give you more information about how we can solve this problem.Kind regards,Dr. Emmanuel Mallol Cotes.-

the stress of surgery can often cause that.  But If you continue to have spotting, a visit to the OBGYN is needed.  good luck with your recovery.
